How to Prepare for a Research Assistant Interview | Biomedical Science Research Assistant Job Applications 🥼🎙

Hello everyone, I hope you're doing well! Previously on this channel, I've made videos on how to write a CV and cover letter for a Biomedical Research Assistant (RA) position. To wrap up this little job application series, I thought it'd be fitting to do an interview preparation video.

In this video, I talk about the purpose of an interview, types of RA interviews in academia vs industry, what to research about the employer, potential questions to expect, and how to answer them. I hope you find this helpful and best of luck in your job application process!

Disclaimer: I am not part of any admissions team; all of what I'm saying is based on my personal opinions and experience.
